After doing some quick checking,Al Caiola worked with him in 1949 when Marterie first joined Mercury.Then in 1953,Tommy Tedesco appeared on his records in 1953-54.

Some may call it the squariest of square interest areas, but my interest in Ralph Marterie began long ago with "Crazy Man Crazy" and his unsung
(and unlikely) role as a rock n roll pioneer. However it has stepped up a bit lately as my friend the singer Bill Walters toured with Marterie and sang
on several of Marterie's Mercury singles. So I've been picking them up -- they are quite common both as 78s and 45s. And I must say I am enjoying
some of these instrumentals he recorded.

Does anyone know who the guitarist might be on "Bongo Guitar" (Mer 70482/70482x45)?
